Joyeux Noel Nutcracker

Hello there! Michelle here, sharing a non traditional take on a Nutcracker. while scrolling through Google images, I came across some pastel water colored images I wanted to recreate. 

This A2 Tall Nutcracker Die, is my FAVORITE new product!!! I used pink, gold, white and black cardstock to dress up the nutcracker. I backed him on vellum cardstock. I dressed up his hat with a holly sprig from Santa's Hot Cocoa Mug Die and used the snowflake die for the background. I inked up the background with distress oxide inks in shades broken china and stormy sky. I added some splashes of water and than some paint splatters.

I scattered some Vintage Bulbs Sequin Mix to the background. The sentiment is from the stamp set, Swanky Christmas Sentiments and the coordinating Die.

Thanks for stopping by for a peek! Hope you have a great week!
